Tinnitus is when you hear a sound when there is no external source of sound around. This sound can be one of many things. It can be ringing, hissing, or sometimes maybe even just white noise (sound similar to a fan or a waterfall). However, tinnitus is a symptom, which means you don’t treat it directly. You treat whatever it is that caused it. If it was caused by hearing loss for example then it’s not curable. If it was caused by some other curable cause, then curing that will get rid of the tinnitus. I hope this helped.
Edit: spelling
I found this remedy on Reddit somewhere. It sounds silly, but it seems to work for me.
Place your hands behind your head with the tips of your middle fingers touching with your hands over your ears. Your index fingers should be resting at the base of your skull. Place your index fingers on top of your middle fingers and snap them down on the base of your skull and alternately drum several times. Somehow this disrupts the nerves and it has always worked for me.
